CURRENTS: WALLWEAR; You'd Better Look Sharp When the Clock Is Watching You

Collectors call a 1957 design by George Nelson Associates the Eye Clock (although if you hang it vertically and shift noon a bit, it resembles a lyre). Last year, the auction house of Bonhams & Butterfields sold a vintage Eye Clock made by the Howard Miller Clock Company for $11,750. New copies, left, $295, from the Vitra Design Museum, are made in Poland and faithfully reproduce the delicate sweep second hand, black dowel eyelashes and brass eyelids.
